“The (National) Guard would be mobilized now if, black.”


Am I confused? Was this not limited to a parking lot? Was there looting going on?

What, exactly, would the NG do after the roundup of the perps?

Bandidos was one. I used to be part of the “biker” community in the Seattle/Tacoma area. They were the one group that was still considered at risk of this sort of thing.

Apparently we were right.

But most of the bikers were RUB’s (Rich Urban Bikers).

No NG is needed. The cops have The Nuge on standby.

The police should have used auto weapons and cut down everyone of these bikers. The way to stop these punks is to wipe them out. They are criminals who deal and smuggle drugs, steal bikes, rape, etc. They are punks.

“The (National) Guard would be mobilized now if, black.”

As it happens, there was no necessity for the National Guard to show up, as the Waco Police Department and the McLennan County Sheriff's Office had the situation well under control, with help from the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Why would you possibly need the National Guard...when you have the Waco PD and the DPS?

Killing each other seems the same as the start of a riot to me.

In cases like this police would use robots for an initial approach of the suspects. A number of bad guys in the past have left bobby traps on their bodies that would detonate as they were taken into custody by LEO’s.

The ones smuggling drugs get approval by the recreational drug users/libertarians.

“From the photos, there’s another notable difference ignored by the leftist tweets: once the police showed up the violence from the bikers seems to have stopped quickly..”

If that is the case, why did the cops have to start shooting when they arrived at Twin Peeks?

Liberals have it backwards. Why should the National Guard be called out? No Whites were rioting. The bikers pictured weren’t assaulting police — as Black did in Baltimore — nor destroying property, nor resisting arrest. Once police asserted their authority, the bikers backed down and behaved. Blacks NEVER do.

There is no comparison. No white person I know is making excuses for these thugs, almost every black person in America is making excuses for black thugs.

No, this was not like Baltimore. Baltimore was about rioting and looting over a perceived injustice. This was a turf war between white biker gangs. If you want an apples to apples comparison, think a turf war between Bloods, Crips, BGF and other black street gangs. But that wouldn't be newsworthy because black on black violence doesn't play to the narrative.

Talking about multiple gangs being in the same place at the same time; I heard this reported on the news that this was some sort of a recruitment gathering.

...something like a job fair, I guess.

Oh come on, David Allan Coe was singing Longhaired Redneck way back in the 70s:

BUT THE COUNTRY D.J.’S ALL THINK I’M AN OUTLAW
AND THEY’D NEVER COME TO SEE ME IN THIS DIVE
WHERE BIKERS STARE AT COWBOYS
WHO ARE LAUGHING’ AT THE HIPPIES
WHO ARE PRAYING’ THEY’LL GET OUT OF HERE ALIVE

Just leave them boys alone, cuz their gonna do what ever they want.

” No white person I know is making excuses for these thugs, almost every black person in America is making excuses for black thugs.”

Would you be able it cite data that show that “Almost every black person in America is making excuses for black thugs?”

Perhaps further, could you cite any data that show that any racial group in this country advocates the type of Gang Violence that occurred in Waco?
